  • Collaborate with the product development team to drive innovation and meet project deadlines.
  • Provide support for prototype development, testing, and compliance.
  • Utilise simulation tools such as Ansys for thermal and mechanical stress analysis (preferred but not essential).


What We’re Looking For:

  • Qualifications: A degree in mechanical engineering or a related field. Membership in a Professional Engineering Society is a plus.
  • Skills: Proficiency in Autodesk Inventor & AutoCAD; experience in using simulation tools (e.g., Ansys); strong communication and project management skills.
  • Experience: A proven track record in electromechanical design within the energy sector or connected electrical products. Experience in working within an SME is desirable.
  • Mindset: A collaborative team player with a keen interest in low-carbon energy technology. Must possess excellent problem-solving skills, a sharp analytical mind, and an ability to bring innovative ideas to life.
